How does oil get its energy?
The energy in oil is 'fossil' sunlight. Oil is made from the body parts of ancient microscopic sea creatures that have become trapped in the sediment in the sea floor when they died. Their bodies contain energy trapped from the sunlight when they were alive and as their bodies are squashed and heated as the sea floor sediments are compressed and turned into rock, the chemicals in them comes out and forms oil in which this sunlight energy still remains.
